Scoring

How to set up scoring in Colibri

Scoring is a step interaction in Colibri that allows participants to be scored when answering questions in a self-paced exercise. This helps to reinforce correct behaviour in participants through consequence.

There are three different options when it comes to scoring:

Scoring option
Description

Set

Set the participant's total score

Increment (this is the default option)

Add an amount to the participant's accumulative score over an exercise.

Decrement

Subtract an amount from the participant's accumulative score over an exercise.

How to

You can configure scoring in the Editor via the Interactions tab in a step:

1. Set

Description
Use

Set the participants total score

At the beginning of an exercise or if you want to reset the participant's score. Set the score to 0 (assuming the score should start at 0)

You might also want to award a specific value at any time and branch on this later

2. Increment

Description
Use

Add an amount to the participant's accumulative score over an exercise

If set to 0, nothing will be added

When using questions, configure all incorrect answers' scoring value to 0, but the correct answer's scoring value to 1 (or more if you like)

3. Decrement

Description
Use

Subtract an amount from the participant's accumulative score over an exercise

If set to 0, nothing will be subtracted

If you'd like to take points away from a participant for getting a question wrong
